(+ look at the links on that site)
why they aren't official:
nobody has volunteered to become the maintainer. See this page for
information on creating setup-installable packages:
http://cygwin.com/setup.html
You'll see it is a lot of work, and nobody has yet had the time.
Further, they depend on things that are not packages themselves (cygipc,
libiconv, etc) -- and the rule is: "no official package may depend on
anything but other official packages"(*)
(*) one exception, which predated this policy: postgres depends on cygipc.
Care to volunteer, instead of whine?
